SOULRELIC Call It Quits

24 March 2007

Finlands SOULRELIC have issued the following update: "As some of you might have wondered the lack of information considering the band known as Soulrelic, aka Kurakello (inside joke, dont ask) heres some: Currently the status of this band is unsigned and unexisting, as we see no continuum for Soulrelic as a demo band. Some of us will continue making music with different instances, but at the moment theres no light at the end of the tunnel for this band. No dramatics were involved in this separation, and well remain as very close friends with each other. But never say never. There is still a slight chance that someday well write new material, but if it ever happens, it wont happen in the near future. So long, and thanks for all the fish."

Biography

Surf & slam? Um... no. Goth & glam? Oh, yes! Melodic rockers SoulRelic are here to take the world by storm.

The debut album of these Finnish gothsters, who executed their first full-fledged European tour already before their 1st ever single release, is sure-fire hit, for while SoulRelic tread a familiar ground, their glam-goth-metal still has that extra dose of individuality sorting out the wheat from the chaff. The powerful sound, expertly brought to the fore by mixing wizard extraordinaire Hiili Hiilesmaa (HIM, Sentenced, The 69 Eyes), is another card in favour of the band.

The perfect soundtrack to a night out where the neon lights glow or for wooing that goth chick next door, “Love is a Lie We Both Believed” is THE album to kick off the season of falling leaves, anno 2005. With two singles off the album already making fast friends with everyone into contemporary rock-metal with strong hard rock vocals, there is no stopping the band now.

Song-writing-wise, it is a consistent album, not simply resting on the strength of one or two instant hits. The sound harks both to the eighties and nineties without being a mere pastiche, and there’s an original twist or two in their use of keyboards.

Prepare yourself for an overdose of SoulRelic’s sweet decadence this Fall.
